Castaway point is a great fishing area. I fish down there as much as possible in the summer time. I hoping the water warms up a little bit with these 80 degree days and brings more bait in. I’m hoping be be fishing there early next week I just have some hog hunting to finish up before it’s 100 degrees out. Thanks for watching and commenting I really appreciate it.
I was awesome to meet you as well. It’s great to know people in the fishing community and be able to help each other out. If you have any questions about the area or looking to catch a particular species I’ll do my best to help out and steer you in the right direction. I’m hooking the boat up tonight and going to give it 100% tomorrow.
@@40s9s3 Yea I definitely agree on that. Usually if I’m fishing the points it’s spots that I’ve seen groups of snook on a regular basis hanging out a little deeper.
Middle of the day, IRL . Worst conditions, still made tight lines. Big snook sleeping, and always give manatees the right of way... for everyone's protection
It really is a challenge to get that bite in mid afternoon. I’ve always wondered if the manatees scare the fish off or if they know they are no threat. I’ve really been struggling to find fish these last two days. I’m heading south of Sebastian tomorrow hoping to find the bite. Thanks for watching and commenting I really appreciate it.
@@centralfloridafisherman9931 All the water around the Banana River/Barge canal has been so polluted there is barely fish anymore. And that water has flowed down to you. It's because of all the dredging and other problems from infrastructure and homes they've been trying to build over years. The water is shit brown, stinks, and the fishing is horrid. Such a shame what people have done, and how little is done to protect it all.
@@TheBoundlessNexus I agree 100 percent. The fishing isn’t what it used to be. There are way more people here in Brevard than ever. Most of the people living on the river are super rich and do not understand our fisheries. They raised the tax a few years ago to help the river and I haven’t seen much of anything done by the state. The things that are being done like oyster bars and such are by local groups not funded by the state. We are seeing clearer waters here in Melbourne lately i think it is because of oysters. Another problem I foresee is the over population of manatees eating all the sea grass. There’s a lot to do to preserve the river but everyone in charge knows nothing about how the river works. Us fisherman know way more than any official in office and it’s sad we have little say it what happens to our beautiful ecosystem.
@@centralfloridafisherman9931 Amen and exactly brother... My only correction to your logic if I may, would be "we have little say", I would argue we have plenty we just don't use it. We comment online, maybe write a letter or two to our representatives. But what next? What do we do when that's not enough? I'll tell you what 99.9% do, sit back and complain harder online... (Not saying you brother, idk the first thing about your personal life, but from what I see it seems you're well versed and do what you can). I'm saying for the others who don't, if they did we would have a much bigger impact. But hey, that's why I take people out on free kayaking/boating adventures and teach them about it all. It's easy to be inspired and take action when you see it all first-hand instead of just behind a computer screen. Cheers, tight lines, and blessings on your week my friend 💪🎣
Fish the bridges. All the way from Melbourne to Titusville. Red drum, black drum, and sheepshead. For decent sized speckled trout we've always had good luck in the canals around Cocoa Beach in the Banana River. Also in the Port for all kinds of fish. If it's monster red fish hit the Mosquito Lagoon. Use binoculars to find where they are tailing and you can hook some monsters one after another.
I call around the night before I go and I find them most of the time at Riggs or man overboard or bucktails. It is hit or miss though. Definitely helps me plan better by knowing the night before and getting there first thing when they open.
@centralfloridafisherman9931 ok. I usually fly by seat of pants and figure maybe should grab bait incase lures not working. Sometimes get lucky but usually is a fail when looking for croakers
If you ever looking for some good snook docks, a cool dude to fish with, and will pitch in on fuel all the time..... give me a shout. This mullet runs been epic fyi.
I think we all have had those kinda days, but it's still a lot of fun being out on the water. May I ask what size / brand trolling motor you have? I don't have one but I liked the way yours preformed. Great video my friend. Steve
I’d say your best bets to fish are bridges where people can’t just pull off and fish. Pick spots that you have to walk to that are not easily accessible. Get some live bait or cut dead mullet and get out there and try a few different spots until you find one that always produces fish. Best bet later on find a cheap small Jon boat and start exploring the river you will have a blast. Check out Pineda causeway Indian river side. I’ve had a lot of luck there when I used to shore fish.
Man I was just at castaway point a few days ago watching the sunrise, I can't wait to do some fishing out there. Love your videos brother!

heyyyy i launch from that very same spot! super nice area but we must guard it with our lives!
Nice AC!
Thank you!
It’s Abdul nice to meet you bud thanks for the fishing advice!!!!

On the docks may need to go closer to land instead of fishing the tip. I get more snook shallow than i do deep.

Nice snook!
Thank you.
Nice snook brother good to see you back at it
Thank you I’m going full force now at least one video a week. Good to hear from you hope all is well.

Which baitshop has croakers? Always have a gard time finding.

Close your tackle box 💧💧💧💧💧💧💦
Absolutely that tackle gets to expensive to have the water lay in there and rust everything up.
If you ever looking for some good snook docks, a cool dude to fish with, and will pitch in on fuel all the time..... give me a shout. This mullet runs been epic fyi.
Used to have a boat but it took a crap on me 2 years ago, and my small john boat won't make it to 3/4 of my spots.
We can definitely get out there one day and slay some fish. The mullet run is epic send me a message threw my instagram centralfloridafisherman
Talk to the locals Employees at bait shops don't always know.
Very true but a lot of the locals try to keep fish and fishing spots secret.
I think we all have had those kinda days, but it's still a lot of fun being out on the water. May I ask what size / brand trolling
motor you have? I don't have one but I liked the way yours preformed. Great video my friend. Steve
There are trout all over the place where you are
There are a lot of trout in the Indian river you just need to find the schools of fish. After you find them you can follow the school around
Epic Beard. Been awhile. Up for a charter if you want some guests.
I just moved to Melbourne and just starting to get into saltwater fishing any recommendations on where to fish besides the beach or good charter boats
